"Our National Guards.n

Under this caption the Dakota Herald
publishes a remarkably strong and pointed
editorial, which we reprint In full in an
other place this morning. In reproducing
1t we commend both the spirit and the
facts it rehearses to our legislators now
assembled in Congress, to the War Depart
ment, and to the commauder.in chief Of the
army and navy Of tue United States.
The natiopal guards of the Union re-
place, in more practical and ever ready
shape, the volunteer reserve Of England,
the lapdwthr Of Germany, and the French
reserves. They are soldiers, not reserve
militia, and, when New York alone could
mass forty thousand fully equipped men on
the Canada border in twenty-four hours,
when Pennsylvania could double that
quota in double that brief space, the use
fulness Of tine American system must be as
plainly apparent as is It's unparalleled
cheapness.
The National Drill, in It's national aspect,
has struck most responsive chord In the
national heart, and 1t only remains for Con-
gress, for the War Department, and for the
President to respond to the popular voice
to insure for 1t success as useful and
as beneficial, as 1t is already assured to be
glittering and interesting.

SENATOR SHERMAN, in speaking of the
President, recently said: Ellis notions
about civil service, however sincere, are
feebly formulated and observed, and are
jsered at and derided by his party associ-
ntes-not one of his recommendations sup
ported.n On this remark the Alexandria
Gazette comments thus:
Mr.. Sherman only says what every man with
his eyes open must see. The Presidents civil
service reform idea is incompatible with re-
publican institutions, and its competitive ex-
aminations and age Limitation are as objec-
tionable to Republicans as to Democrats. The
one good object that would be achieved by
Mr.. Cleveland's denomination would be the
speedy abolition of both these un american
features.
Our contemporary is in error in sup
posing that Republicans are opposed to the
President when he stands by the civil SET
vice reform pledges on which he was
elected. The Republican party stood by
President Arthur In an honest enforce
ment Of the civil service law. That law
and the principles 1t embodies have not
been respected under the present admins.

Unnecessary Taxation is Oppression.

We wish our lawmakers TO consider the
inquiry whether they are dealing Justly with
the people to allow this Congress to ad.
journ without passing law for the reduc-
tion Of taxes. Every member of both
houses Of Congress will, X asked, admit
that the already excessive surplus In the
treasury will be greatly and unnecessarily
augmented before the meeting Of the next
Congress in December Unless some Of the
tax laws are repealed, the surplus will, &C.
cording to every estimate, increase at the
rate OF nearly eight millions per month,
which in nine months will amount to at
least ST0000,000.
What will be the effect upon business
and trade to have Ss00O,00O per month
added to the treasury surplusg
What effect will the possession by the
government OF such an enormous sum OF
useless money have upon the next Con-
gTess2
We answer the first question; II the
government during the next nine or ten
months withdraws from the circulating
medium Of the country Ss,000,0O0 per
month and retains II in the treasury there
will necessarily be a great stringency in the
money market, times will become hard,
business will become dull, and failures In
business will be numerous and large.
We answer the second question: The
next Congress would, Immediately upon It's
organization, find It absolutely necessary to
pass laws for the prompt disbursement of
the surplus money; lily considered and
extravagant measures would undoubtc lily
be adopted and the money unnecessarily
drawn from the people would be squin.
dered. An oyernowing treasury always
leads to extravaganza.
And then, after great injury had been
done to the business interests Of the coun-
try, and wasteful appropriations had been
made, the question which now confronts
Congress would still be before them, aud
taxes would be reduced In response to the
imperative demand Of the people. Gentle
men, you still have time to avert these
dangers to the public veal. Were there no
law In existence taxing tobacco and cigars
and taxing the 100000 dealers in these
articles, would Congress now be busying
itself cnactiDg such law No. No man
would have the courage to stand RESPONSE
bic for such measure. II the duty on raw
sugar were reduced to one cent per pound
would any member Of Congress attempt to
increase It We think not.
This Congress now has no time to enter
upon the business Of remodeling the tariff;
II the revenues are TO be reduced there are
three great tax.producing articles which
must be dealt with-tobacco, sugar, dis
titled spirits. Take your choice, gentle
men, and passa short bill taking off seventy
five or eighty million dollars taxes, aud
you can adjourn and go home to your con-
stituents, feeling that you have done good
work. Republicans of the Senate, do you
think that you can afford to adjourn on
the 4th of March without FIRST having made
on earnest effort to reduce taxesS

Chicago Ne,Cs' A lieutenant in the 9Th
infantry has drawn his pay for last Decem-

Occasionally an army officer displays
talent for obtaining money from the public

had mistaken his vocation In life when he
selected the army instead Of politics for o
profession.
New York Mail and Express. The atti-
tude of the Democratic representatives who
are the conferees on the iortifcation bill is
both silly and exasperating. They pretend
toagree with the Senate conferees that
there should be an expenditure of $l0,000,-
600, but they refuse to consent that the
President shall appoint the board for the
examination aud testing Of ordnance.
Plttsburg Dispatch; We can hardly see
the removal Of the superintendent OF the
rail way mail service in any other light than
that of a triumph for the spolls policy under
the management of Mr.. Vilae, over the re-
form theories OF the President. This Is
entirely in accord with the previous
reducing the policy OF the President TO
byword, and may be regarded as his final
stroke IN the line OF spoils.

most impressive word. II China ever learns

she reaches the eastern shore Of the Atlantic.
1t was from that section Of Asia that the
Aryan race swept over the northern half Of
the eastern hemisphere, leaped the Atlantic
and took possession OF all Of the western
hemisphere. Some day there will come
another outpouring from the same source,
and Europe will fall prey to It, 1t does
not occur to us, however, that the time Is
yet ripe. We shall sleep easily for several

Young men under ago who are contem.

bear In mind decision rendered by Judge
Welker, OF the United States court, at
Clev, land. w. Seward Hearn enlisted 10
the United States army In August, 1882,
when not quite 20 years old, and deserted
the following May. After wandering about
the country for nearly three years he went
to Cleveland and married four months ago.
He was arrested lately for desertion, and
put In the plea that the enlistment, having
been without the consent OF his parents,
was illegal, and that he had the right to
leave at any time before he came Of age.
Judge Welker decided that q minor over 16
years OF age was entitled to enlist In the
army without the consent Of his parents or
guardian, unless they refused to give con-
sent, and that he was consequently held
under the same obligation as II he were Of
age.

THE Courier Journal reminds the Atlanta
Constitution that II once held very different
opinions on the tariff from those 1t now holds.
and quotes from its columns some very sound
arguments against protection. This is cruel.
but II is one Of those rare cases in which
cruelty is deserved, Richmond Siate.
The Christian churches contain millions
of good people who once held very diff.
ferent opinions from those they now hold.
In some instances these converts met with
sudden change, like that which occurred
to Saul of Tarsus others slowly toiled
from lower to higher plane. But all are
supposed to have ''got there;" all are better
of than they would have been had they
continued in the bondage Of sin. Some
thing like this is going on all over the
south, where the gospel of protection to
American industry is being preached from
hundreds Of furnaces, mills, and factories.

Barrett at dinner, but, mindful OF that ele-

You cannot guess the venom'd stings,
The poison chaf, the bitter scOrning,
The cruel taunts, the caustic filings

Now there's the wife beloved OF me
She even intimated slyly
That, spite her awkward husband, she
Was quite as good as Madame Reilly"
And little Ida-bless her eyesl

Declared betwixt her tears and sighs
She guessed she was las good as Gussie -
